It took me a few days to figure out a CVS transaction that would be worth it this week. I am starting to collect the prepaid cards again for vacation next year, so I like to take advantage of the gift card deals when they end up working out to my advantage :) I had like $43.00 in ECB but I didn't want to spend too many on this so I kept most and just paid the difference OOP. I planned to do 2 transactions since I had 2 $4.00/$20.00 coupons but my cashier let me ring both transactions together. The only issue with doing this was I had 2 $5.00 prepaid cards I wanted to use (one in each transaction) but they are the cards that will not go through unless the balance is at or less than the amount on the card. So, since I rang both transactions together I could only use 1 card, since the other would come up declined. Make sense? lol. I had to go to 2 stores because my first store didn't have enough of the Glade air sprays.
Store #1:
